What type of solution pump does this unit use and can its pressure be adjusted to a lower level for upholstery?

Good afternoon. Any liquid carpet cleaning product can be used with this. I get our best results using a mixture of 15% vinegar and 85% water. The unit's pressure can't be lowered for upholstery but it is safe for use on upholstery.

The pump requires a wall plug. Unfortunately the valve for the couch is a odd size that doesn't fit most portable pumps either.

Hi Cynthia, this pump would do it, but there are better units available for your purpose. It has adequate pressure, but relatively low volume, which I estimate would be down to around 1.5 gallons per minute with your particular application. You really need to look for specifications of around 7 - 8 gpm and 60 - 70 PsiChrrs Chris

No it requires a fill pressure of 3000 psi. There are compressors called shoebox compressors that would work otherwise get a good hand pump like the hill or plan on buying a scuba tank and having it fillled

Yes, a 3/4 pump has pressure settings, you can adjust your settings to where you need them on your pressure switch.

You should be fine. The first numbered level is 30psi but there are plently of levels below that. I often use 20 psi for model paint and I could go lowers. It's a good unit.

I do not believe this is for your application. This is an above ground pump.

I agree with Marlowe. The pump can't be regulated, however I put an inline regulator in my system. Pretty simple fix to regulate max pressure.

My Airman kit had two pumps. One is high volume/low pressure for things like mattresses and the other is low volume/high pressure for car tires. I've used the low volume pump on twin mattresses fine when the battery was fully charged. But since there are so many different brands of mattresses I can't tell you what brand would fit the adaptors the pumps come with. Also, the item you're looking at IS NOT the high volume/low pressure pump so it would probably take forever on a mattress. If you check my review of the product you'll find I was initially pleased with ActiveTool as a brand then became very unsatisfied when they provided ZERO customer support. Something to think about. $68 is a lot of money for zero support.

I think that the one you are looking for is the 2088-422-444----also on amazon. It is quieter and will do the same job as yours. The one that I got will work also but it is a lot noisier----It might, however, pump with more pressure and volumn.

Yes, but only on floors. This tool is not intended for upholstery. The suction is very strong with this tool. It's my favorite.

I contacted Rigid customer service to try and answer your question, they responded wanting to know the model number of the vac that you plan on using. Since the pump and vac I purchased were a Christmas present I do not have that information if your customer wishes to respond with this information, I may be able to get the PSI information that he is requesting.

It's called a presta valve. I bought a hand pump from walmart that's interchangeable between the two types. It was like 20 bucks. I bet Amazon sells them.

it can be adjusted but max pressure would be 850 psi. you should look into a SHP regulator made by ninja that will have the high pressure you want.

Yes. I like to use a paddle type flow switch for booster pumps, but a pressure switch will work fine. Setting the high-low and range adjustments can be a little tricky in some situations.

From what I can tell there is no pump, so the unit works with a valve/head pressure. So you may not get optimal results with the reservoir at the same height

I don't see any way to adjust the pressure on this pump. It is a great pump in every aspect though. Very quiet and delivers consistent pressure.
